The first 2 weeks were rough...actually horrid.  I had to go the ER twice for fluids and then 3 days back in the hospital for an obstruction.  I am just now starting to feel much, much better.  I can eat and drink with no problems.  AND I can sleep now and without nightmares.

To everyone who told me to hang in there, thank you!  I am still a little weak but I feel stronger each day.  The pain is almost gone and I only take a pain pill at bed because I toss and turn so much (helps so much with tummy pain).  I haven't had to use any pain meds during the day since I was about 5 days post-op.

To the super newbies out there, I hope all is well.  To the vets, thanks again.
